1 Answer

Answer :

answer:The answer is: does it make a difference in how you view/treat them if they are gay or not? Queen Latifah has never come out or made mention that she is gay. I don’t know if she is or isn’t. If she is, good for her. If she isn’t, good for her. Do we need to delineate gay or not gay? Why can’t people be respected for who they are instead of what they are? I believe this is the foundation of equality. People don’t need to “come out”. They just need to be who they are and accepted for that.
